Previous in vitro studies evaluating the permeability of enaminones suggested that their blood-brain barrier (BBB) transport might be influenced by the presence of an efflux mechanism. Therefore, transport mechanisms responsible for these anticonvulsants across the BBB were examined. The transport of enaminones (1 x 10(-4) M) were evaluated over 120 min with verapamil (50 microM) and probenecid (100 microM) using bovine brain microvessel endothelial cells (BBMECs) to assess the role of multidrug resistant (MDR) transport proteins [i.e., P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and MDR protein 1 (MRP1)] on efflux, respectively. Uptake studies in the presence and absence of rhodamine 123 (R123; 3.2 and 5.0 microM) were also performed in a Pgp overexpressing cell line, MCF-7/Adr. Select enaminone esters (12.5 mg/kg) were administered intravenously to mdr 1 a/b (+/+), mdr 1 a/b (-/-) knockout and probenecid pretreated mice (20 +/- 5g). Enaminones and R123 were assayed with validated ultraviolet and fluorescence high-performance liquid chromatography methods, respectively. Verapamil and probenecid significantly ( p>0.05) inhibited the transport of select enaminone esters across BBMECs. Two enaminones caused a statistically significant increase in the uptake of R123 in MCF-7/Adr cells. Concentrations of select enaminones in mdr 1 a/b (-/-) mice brains were significantly higher ( p<0.05) compared with those in mdr 1 a/b (+/+) mice brains; however, no differences were observed in probenecid pretreated animals. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that Pgp may influence enaminone transport at the BBB and hence affect epilepsy treatment with these agents.
